Dementia Action Week 2026

This Dementia Action Week (15-21 September) we're encouraging everyone to take the first step to learn more about dementia and how you can help shape our communities for the better.

Dementia Australia is the source of trusted information, education and services for the estimated more than 421,000 Australians living with dementia and the more than 1.6 million people involved in their care.
